IU Center for Global Health Support for Racial Equity
Friday, June 26, 2020
At the IU Center for Global Health, our mission is to improve health and human flourishing in underserved areas worldwide.
This does not and cannot mean that we focus only on inequities between high and low-income countries, but also on the inequities that exist in our own country, the state of Indiana and our own neighborhoods. Too often, where an individual is born or their ethnic heritage determines their opportunities, health status and life expectancy. Social, economic and health equity is a key value of our Center, not only as we look outward to the global community, but also as we look inward to our own country, state and community.
